The Hebrew names for the books of The Bible are not translations of the English names. In Hebrew, books are usually named after their first significant word or words. The first word in the Book of Numbers is Bemidbar (במדבר) which means "In the desert of...".

So, the Hebrew name for the Book of Numbers is Bemidbar.
